Cybersecurity Conferences in Ireland

Ensuring secure hardware and software systems requires trustworthy methodologies for analysis, verification, and dynamic testing, supported by best practices and IT security guidelines throughout a product’s lifecycle. A holistic approach combining runtime monitoring and design-time methods like static analysis and program synthesis is crucial for robust formal guarantees. Key areas include firmware, communication protocols, operating systems, APIs, and cloud software, with careful consideration of supply chain integration of hardware and software. Papers are invited to discuss research into addressing challenges about the whole-lifecycle of software & hardware components: from upstream hardware & software supply chains, where dependencies are brought into the device under test (DUT) or system under test (SUT); through security by design of the DUT/SUT; and the secure operation of that device/system in many and varied cyber-physical situations, each of which has different priorities and presents different threats. Topics of relevance include, but are not limited to: Access control management of devices in systems Management of updates and patching at scale and in different environments Modelling of security threats and effects in terms of risks to stakeholders in cyber-physical situations Security throughout the lifecycle of the IoT/Cyber Physical System (CPS) Holistic methodologies for whole-lifecycle security management and how components and tools interoperate within such a methodology Support for current relevant regulation, e.g. Cybersecurity Act, GDPR, Cyber Resilience Act Security by design and / or security in operation Certification & security evaluation Security and Digital Twins New solutions for secure bootstrapping and commissioning of smart systems Tools and methods providing assurances about the hardware / software supply chain – e.g. provenance assurance of upstream libraries / components Audit methods, plus auditable data structures and tools to support whole-lifecycle security assurance and device provenance Dynamic scanning and detection tools, e.g. advanced vulnerability / attack / anomaly detection tools Vulnerability scanning tools for hardware and software Software-bill-of-materials generation from binaries AI-assisted tools for security testing Testing with fuzzing techniques See https://telemetry-project.eu/workshop-on-whole-lifecycle-security-for-smart-systems-methods-and-tools-lifesec/#paper-submission for further information on submitting a paper

COSAC offers a unique conference experience by eliminating vendor displays, sales pitches, and conventional 'best-practice' thinking. Attendees join an international community of open-minded professionals who prioritize collaboration over status. The event includes delegate registration packages with accommodation, meals, networking opportunities, and airport transfers, fostering an environment focused on innovative thinking and meaningful connections.
